On June 4, 1887, the Institut Pasteur was created following the success of the rabies vaccine developed by Louis Pasteur – and thanks to the generous support of countless donors. Just set up as an institution with official charitable status, the building work began straight away.
Researchers at the Institut Pasteur and the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, in collaboration with several other international institutions, recently published two studies tracing the history of cholera outbreaks in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean from the last 60 years.
